Release Radar · June 2022 Edition
It’s been a crazy couple of months with the end of financial year and lots of products shipping. Our community has been hard at work shipping projects too. These projects can include everything from world-changing technology to developer tooling, and weekend hobbies. Here are some of these open source projects that released major updates this […] ⌘ Read more

@win0err@kolesnikov.se I agree with @prologic@twtxt.net about the text size. Adding content="width=device-width" to your viewport meta tag will help massively with scaling on different device widths.

Eg. The first screenshot is the current site with a device width of 440px and the second is with the updated viewport meta tag.

Other than that, I like the aesthetic of it 😊 It gives me early-ish internet vibes, which I wasn’t online for (I’m a ‘90s baby) but I’ve seen some pretty early websites.

@prologic@twtxt.net, thanks for the information! I’ll update my twtxt.txt file :-)

** Lamination for a lost explorer **
I remember the days when Kicks Condor used to update regularly. I miss those days.

For a while every post seemed to unearth some new, yet weirder corner of the little internet (maybe not yet the smol web).

There are folks doing similar web archeology…I do some of it myself…but no one does it like Kicks was doing it; there was often a feeling of unknown, but ulterior motive behind the curation — bits building towards a cohesive something.

even if cause X came along now, people wouldn’t be able to update towards it within a year.

All this time spent being grumpy about how adding my Now updates directly into the html page is uncomfortable, and it just occurred to me I can chug it into a text file and use cat.

Based.Cooking has become more grandma-usable.
Over the past month, I’ve taken some off-time to tinker with
Based.Cooking, the cooking site I/we made a year or so
ago as a proof of concept for a simple and unintrusive recipe website. There
have been over 250 recipes submitted, but the hobbled-together static site
generator originally used proved unable to keep up and with all the
submissions, there was a big issue of content organization.

There have been two big changes. Firstly, I port … ⌘ Read more

second, there’s predictions. a prediction is Done when it’s made. you could add comments, explanations, models &c, but the prediction can be Done and stand there on its own. (there is a slight problem with the fact that predictions need to be updated over time, though, so there is some Piling there as well).

Love the new icons on the latest update!

@benk@kwiecien.us Ubuntu is being similarly mean to me. “Can’t upgrade X because Y depends on older version. Can’t update Y because there’s a dependency problem”. I’m pretty sure the dependency problem would be solved with an upgrade, but I can’t perform one…

Important notes for LARBS users
Two notes for LARBS users:

1. Xorg went through some updates last week that changed how it calculates dots-per-inch (DPI) on screens. There’s a chance that you might update and find your font extra large or small. If so, you can just manually addxrandr --dpi 96 to the beginning of your xprofile to set the DPI to the typical 96 (or whatever number looks best).
   
2. I have no switched new installs of LARBS from using Pulseaudio to Pipewire as an … ⌘ Read more

GitHub security update: revoking weakly-generated SSH keys

@prologic@twtxt.net finally updated yarnd.. FORK!? Awesome!

There’s been a lingering error on the server I botched the OS update on last Thursday. I had a hunch about the cause, and it turns out I was correct! Hopefully not too complicated to fix either 😊️

Important: LindyPress undergoing some updates
Although I haven’t announced in a video on the YouTube channel yet, I’m glad that there’s been a lot of interest in LindyPress.net. I haven’t done a video on it just because there are some details in the site coding we’re still figuring out, but books are already printing, shipping and arriving at some of your houses.

Just a couple technical notes:

@mckinley@twtxt.net @prologic@twtxt.net I have updated the ticket with my findings.. its not what you expect! /clickbait https://github.com/jointwt/twtxt/issues/424

major difference between updating on evidence vs. morals: we know that a bayesian is converging (monotonically?) towards truth with each piece of evidence, while with moral progress, it seems likely that we are not bounded in how wrong our updates can be (even if we grant that the arc bends towards justice in the end). we might need to escape moral local maxima. therefore, it seems good to preserve option value.

Wallpaper gray on LARBS?
If after a recent update, xwallpaper isn’t setting your wallpaper on boot in LARBS, it’s because xwallpaper is giving an error with the recent version of glibc.

There’s already an issue up about this on the xwallpaper Github and hopefully it will be fixed soon. Out of my control.

You can spend a little time learning alternate ways to set wallpapers in the meantime, or learn to love gray. ⌘ Read more

PeerTube v3 is now live with Live Streaming abilities
PeerTube has recently released version 3.0.0, which has added many things, including the ability to livestream. I’ve already updated by PeerTube instance to version 3 (it is linked from this RSS entry), but the link is just videos.lukesmith.xyz .

I’m not sure if I’ll end up immediately using the livestream ability, but it is certainly nice to have a non-YouTube option which is, in fact, self-hosted.

okay. txtnish is now officially sketchy. sometimes feeds don’t update, even if I run txtnish update, and this means missing replies. I gotta find something else if I’m going to make this more than a write-only experience.

there’s a zet growing in my wiki now. #updates

with the addition of crate in weewiki, I finally found an opportunity to add some words to the !sqlar page #updates

@prologic@twtxt.net yeah I do.

It seems a bit wonky that it imports from your packages in some places. I’m guessing that’s some legacy bits that need updates?

initial crate words imported in to weewiki source repo. no code yet, but it’s pretty clear to me what needs to happen next in order to make an MVP. #updates

import functionality now works in the !weewiki zet #updates

some good initial progress with the !weewiki zettelkasten. messages can be made and tied to previous messages by providing partial UUIDs (that then get automatically expanded). basic export also works. #updates

@lyxal@twtxt.net @prologic@twtxt.net if we edit the txt file does it update on web?

I’m really sad to have (temporarily) taken my monome grid + arc off my desk, but the empty space on my table makes me think better. Hopefully, I’ll be able to appreciate them more when they come back. #updates

Did some work on WKD handling. Can update keys with HKP posts :) Ugh need to work on docs and unit tests. Boooorrring.
